UW Computational Neuroscience Center

The University of Washington’s Computational Neuroscience Center brings together award-winning research underway across the full spectrum of scales, mechanisms, and functions of the brain. Topics range from ion channel stochasticity in auditory processing to insect flight control to human/computer interfaces. Our faculty members’ interests span many areas of theory, computation and data analysis and interact extensively with colleagues in quantitative experimentation and imaging. They hold positions in many departments in the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Medicine and the School of Engineering — giving students the chance to find their natural disciplinary home — but are closely connected through a dense web of interdisciplinary, cross-departmental collaboration. UWCNC also houses the Swartz Center for Theoretical Neuroscience.
